I made more money as a librarian in a public library here in Florida. I now avoid all contact with tourists and their more pernicious form "the transplant". What a miserable salary they offered!

I don't expect much different from Gawker though. It's all about the witty comebacks, not loving support. It’s also illuminating the lack of awareness of the different southern cultures.

Clearly we are too dull and stupid to compete at that level of counter-counter-yet more counter-reverse levels of ironic witticisms and bons motes. Then again, give me some sweet tea, a Mason jar of 'shine and a gun, and I'll hustle up some damn fine candy-ass research any 'ole day. Long as it's not deer season that is.
